Description: This book delves into humanity's ever-evolving moral judgments on suicide across history. The author, an esteemed sociologist, meticulously examines how societies have oscillated between condemning and tolerating this act, and how these views are shaped by factors such as religion, philosophy, and cultural norms. The depth of analysis in this book is striking, as the author draws upon a vast array of sources, including historical documents, literature, and jurisprudence, to explore the complex interplay between individual choice and societal pressures. Through this comprehensive examination, the author reveals the profound ways in which our understanding of suicide has been influenced by our evolving moral landscape. Ultimately, this book's insights shed light not only on the history of suicide but also on the broader human experience of grappling with mortality, free will, and the boundaries of acceptable behavior.
